Ilona The Twincharger Ke55 Coupe

[JJT036]

R31 Silhouette 15x6"? They look good. Just needs Chrome Dress Rings, and some low. :)

 

Josh :cool:

These rims are purely for rolling around on. I cbf'd pretty-ing them up. On that note, I believe there is some strut rub, so I'll chuck on a 3mm spacer.

kill them with fire!!!

So now that the AE71 is on the road and only slightly problematic every 48 hrs, I can now go nuts with the coupe. If I had endless amounts of money, it would be finished within a few weeks, but alas, I do not. So I want it finished before July next year. That is the goal, who knows what will happen.

 

Plans:

-Paint/respray

-Engine build

-Organize turbo manifold

-Dummy fit everything/make up brackets

-Organize wiring and ECU

-Get her running

 

Sounds like a relatively small list, but realistically, it is not.

 

Cheers, Jake.

I have pretty much everything for your front suspension n brakes. Need to open up the holes in the Peugeot discs so they bolt up to the XT 130 hubs and make some 1.5mm spacers for the caliper mount. Getting there man :dance:

KYB AGX 4 way adjustable SW20 MR2 rears, I think so! Also some XT130 wheel bearings.

So it's been a while since I've updated this. I have spent way too much money on my Spirit and this project was getting neglected. However, now that the Spirit is pretty much gone I can focus some more attention on this :D

 

Check out what arrived in the post today.

Sweet As. Funny as I have a Yellow 55 Coupe rust here and there but it doesn't look as cool or as powerful as yours. Sorry for stealing the thread but yours is its coming together sweet.

Sorry if I'm asking a stupid question but do you use those kyb's in the rear of the coupe? I'm looking for an upgrade for mine.

those are going in his xt130 struts.

 

for upgrade in the rear ive heard that kyb adjustable mr2 shocks fit and lowered vn wagon shocks also fit

[Smithius]

Sorry to jack your post.

Yes, they're for my XT130 struts and they are MR2 rear shocks.
